My grandmother just died of stroke. And I don't think stroke is genetics in my family but I want to eat right and I do but the thing is I want to know what kind of food can lower high cholesterol. I don't think I have high cholesterol because I'm a vegetarian, but I want to keep my blood vessels clean and not clotted.
all fruits and veggies are good except Avocados, coconuts and nuts
chocolate, cocoa, fat contained in the usual salad dressings, gravies, and sauces are all very fatty. Animal fats, including lard and suet, should particularly be avoided in cooking. Frying should be completely eliminated in the preparation of foods, not only because of its high fat production, but also because of its unhealthy way of interfering with the normal digestion of foods and essential nutriments and vitamins, the irritating character and effect on the digestive tract of the fried fats, and the destruction of vitamins and essential foodstuffs in the food that is fried.
Even vegetable fats are best not used. An exception can be made for vegetable oils such as soya oil, corn seed oil, and cottonseed oils.
